VirtPhy: Fully Programmable NFV Orchestration Architecture for Edge Data Centers.

Emerging paradigms, such as edge computing, require the geographical distribution of small-scale data centers that will use network functions virtualization (NFV) to provide new services with stringent demands related to throughput, latency, cost, innovation, and efficient orchestration. To tackle these demands, this paper proposes VirtPhy, a fully programmable architecture for NFV orchestration i...
